Lyrics

0:42Way down in Dixie
0:45Oh do they miss me
0:49Down along the Dixie Line
0:56Banjos are strumming
1:00Horseflies are humming
1:03Ripe melons on the vine
1:10The gold and the grey weeds
1:14Saying look away
1:17Way down along the Dixie Line
1:25I spent my childhood walking the wildwood
1:32Down along the Dixie Line
1:39Freight trains are squalling
1:43Eyeballs are bawling
1:46Four engines at a time
1:54I was so happy with Momma and Pappy
2:01Down along the Dixie Line
2:07Can't you hear those drivers way
2:15Can't you see those bright rails shine
2:22Wanna catch that fireball man
2:30Leave that North Land far behind
3:19A river of whiskey flows down in Dixie
3:26Down along the Dixie Line
3:33They pulled up the tracks now
3:37I can't go back now
3:40Can't hardly keep from crying
3:47Oh do they miss me way down in Dixie
3:55Down along the Dixie Line
4:01Can't you hear those drivers way
4:09Can't you see those bright rails shine
4:16Wanna catch that fireball man
4:23Leave the north land far behind
4:35Down along the Dixie Line
Way down in Dixie
Oh do they miss me
Down along the Dixie Line
Banjos are strumming
Horseflies are humming
Ripe melons on the vine
The gold and the grey weeds
Saying look away
Way down along the Dixie Line
I spent my childhood walking the wildwood
Down along the Dixie Line
Freight trains are squalling
Eyeballs are bawling
Four engines at a time
I was so happy with Momma and Pappy
Down along the Dixie Line
Can't you hear those drivers way
Can't you see those bright rails shine
Wanna catch that fireball man
Leave that North Land far behind
A river of whiskey flows down in Dixie
Down along the Dixie Line
They pulled up the tracks now
I can't go back now
Can't hardly keep from crying
Oh do they miss me way down in Dixie
Down along the Dixie Line
Can't you hear those drivers way
Can't you see those bright rails shine
Wanna catch that fireball man
Leave the north land far behind
Down along the Dixie Line
